A Wednesday Poem by Gabriela Marie Milton & Congratulations to all Nominees & Winners at Spillwords 2025

Happy Wednesday my dear followers! A poem for today.


The sky opens. The child continues to sleep, the moon tightly squeezed between his little fingers. In the #bathtub roses, and the aroma of sandalwood invert their positions. I took too many sleeping pills.

I fell into the exaltation of my own double. Grabbed by the claws of a bird the loneliness spams. A conch shell releases your voice. Stars and sea salt. My last I love you.
